Moore’s prop


By John McCaslin

The family of U.S. Air Force Maj. Gregory Stone was shocked to learn that video footage of the major’s Arlington National Cemetery burial was included by Michael Moore in his movie “Fahrenheit 9/11.”

Stone was killed in March 2003 by a grenade that officials said was thrown into his tent by Sgt. Hasan K. Akbar, who is on trial for murder.

It’s been a big shock, and we are not very happy about it, to say the least,” Kandi Gallagher, Stone’s aunt and family spokeswoman, tells Washington Times reporter Audrey Hudson.

We are furious that Greg was in that casket and cannot defend himself, and my sister, Greg’s mother, is just beside herself,” Gallagher said. “She is furious. She called him a ‘maggot that eats off the dead.’”
